We help family secure a new home at our Troon development
The Nolan family talked about moving to Troon for two years before finding the perfect home that ticked all their boxes at our Queen’s Court development. Kirsty and Frankie moved to the Troon development and have fallen in love with their home and the growing community.
Originally buying a new home wasn’t really on the cards for the family, but after visiting Queen’s Court, they decided it was the right choice for them.

RNLI Receives Our Support in Troon
We have teamed up with the Royal National Lifeboat Institution and can confirm that we will donate £25 for each new home sold and legally completed at our new developments in Troon – Princess Gate and Queen's Court.
In total, a grand sum of £5,650 will be paid to the RNLI, and this substantial donation will go directly to the local RNLI Troon Lifeboat Station.
The donation signals a long-term relationship between our team in Troon and the RNLI with the money contributing towards the amazing life-saving services the RNLI Troon Lifeboat Station provides. The charity aims to use volunteers wherever possible and with voluntary donations, this donation contributes to funds which are necessary to make this achievable and will help with the RNLI’s overall aim to keep lives safe at sea.
The RNLI has a vital role within the community of Troon, and the local lifeboat station covers the lower Firth of Clyde with its two lifeboats. The crew members are dedicated to keeping the local community safe and they have received three RNLI medals for gallantary.
Commenting on the support that it has received, Urda Cotter from the RNLI said: “We are extremely grateful for the support that we have received from Taylor Wimpey West Scotland, and we can’t thank them enough for their generous donation. This money will be put to work locally to help us achieve the overall aim of our service to the local community. On behalf of everyone at RNLI, I would like to say a huge thank you.”
Audrey Ross, Sales and Marketing Director said: ”We are delighted to be able to support the RNLI at its Troon Lifeboat Station. Our announcement signals the creation of a relationship with this very worthy cause that will provide a link between the new community that will emerge at Princess Gate and Queen's Court, and the existing community of Troon. Working with the RNLI is a real honour and we are extremely proud to be showing our support in this way.
Being able to work with local charities and organisations that surround our developments means a great deal to us, and it’s always lovely to know that we are helping to make a difference to the lives of people in our local communities.”
Our donation to RNLI is one of the many contributions being made by us towards community facilities and infrastructure in the wider area.

Watch your step! We teach children at Struthers Primary School about safety
Recently, Site Manager, Scott McNulty, from our local Princess Gate development, headed back to school to teach children from Struthers Primary School in Troon about the importance of health and safety on a building site.
Our Site Health & Safety Consultant Ian Holden led the presentation for P1-P7 children at the local primary school, teaching the children about safety warning signs, building site machinery, protective clothing and more. The presentation included the opportunity for children to try on some of the safety and protective clothing that our construction staff wear.
Commenting on the visit, Scott McNulty, Site Manager said: “It was great to see the children of Struthers Primary School engage with our presentation, and I was delighted to see that many of them had an interest in finding out how we build our new homes. At Taylor Wimpey, we are committed to working closely with the local communities that we build in, so it is vital that we inform children in schools around our developments about the risks to look out for around our construction sites.”
Eilidh McBean, Depute head teacher at Struthers Primary School said: “It’s good to see a company like Taylor Wimpey taking the time to talk to children about something that really matters. Ian and Scott did a great job of keeping the children engaged with their interactive presentation, whilst teaching them about the importance of health and safety on a building site. I’d like to thank them both on behalf of everyone at Struthers Primary School for taking the time to teach the children about such an important subject.”
